[There's a fuzzy little beast. It's round and huge and tan, with large, black eyes and monstrous teeth...

Or a hamster on the communicator. And somewhere behind it, Toku's laughing.]

Are you saying thanks too, Steak? Come on now...

[Hands pick up the little creature, then Toku goes for the device and lifts it up. He's set the little hamster on

You look a lot better then last time, Toku.

[She is also peering curiously at the little hamster.]

[orz_mypaycheck]

Thanks! Y-yeah, I feel better too. I had some weird sickness, I think a reindeer came by to see me... or that might have just been the fever.

[He laughs and glances at the little creature.] Hey, hey Steak. Say hi to Jazz! Jas, this is Steak. And this one... [He turns the device to a second hamster, which is curled up in its cage.] This is Pork!

This last month has been pretty strange. I wouldn't be surprised if people were hallucinating.

[She smiles and laughs a little at the names.]

Steak and Pork? that's pretty creative; where did you get them?

[They're so tiny!]

[orz_mypaycheck]

Me neither! It's kind of weird, though...

[He just smiles. Ahhh it's been a good day.]

I brought them from home! And they're easier to feed and not that hard to take care of, so I got to keep them in my apartment.

[totally_feliks]

Ohmygawd, like, what is that?

[orz_mypaycheck]

Hamsters?

[totally_feliks]

[He's clearly never seen one before]

It's like, so freaking cute! Where'd you like, get it?

A HE!? SRSLY?

[orz_mypaycheck]

I brought them from home!

[ys_must_die]

I'm fine. [Maybe just a little limpy...] Hang out? There aren't even any good places to hang out here!

[ys_must_die]

HEY! I wanna hold one of the hamsters!

[orz_mypaycheck]

W-well, we could go to the park, or...

You could come over if you want! A-and play with them.

[ys_must_die]

What's in the park?

I have to come all the way over there?

[terrorizedafu]

Ah... it is named Steak, afu?

[orz_mypaycheck]

Yep! Steak! And the other one is Pork.

[terrorizedafu]

Mm... those are very strange names, afu...!

[orz_mypaycheck]

Really?

[spooktalk]

They look about as lively as you are in this place. Do you think we could bargain with the scientists to keep you here? Even if the others and I might miss you. Though, imagine all the money we'll be able to save...

[Pause for contemplative thinking. So many extra plates for Tarou to throw at Maki's head.]

...oh. Am I going to meet your girl-- I mean, your friend sometime soon, Toku?

[orz_mypaycheck]

They're doing very well!

[He laughs nervously. Think of all the plates!] I'd like if I could stay here... That would be very nice. I'll miss you guys too but... m-maybe I can visit!

Jilleena? I hope so! I think she's still not feeling very well, so I was going to bring Steak and Pork to visit her. Would you like to come?

[spooktalk]

I'm a little surprised. [Mostly at the fact that they're still alive.]

We'll have to ask them if you'll be able to acquire some visitation rights as well. I wonder, do you still require a Visa or passport to travel between worlds?

I see. I do not mind coming along, as long as I am not a bother. She sounds very... outspoken.

[orz_mypaycheck]

[He laughs.] I bet these hamsters will outlive me, at any rate!

But I don't know if we could get a visa like that... We'd have to find a travel agency.

Jilleena's not that outspoken! She's just a little... [What's a better word...] Bold?
